Plumber is one of Ontario's compulsory trades. To legally practise the trade, a person generally must hold a Certificate of Qualification, a Provisional Certificate or a Registered Training Agreement, and be listed on the Skilled Trades Ontario Public Register. Ask for the plumber's certificate number and confirm it on the register before work starts. Your city may also license plumbing contractors or master plumbers.

Plumbing permits in Ontario are issued by your city's building department under the Ontario Building Code. New plumbing, moving fixtures, and replacing drain or water lines usually need a permit and inspection; clearing a clog or swapping a fixture in the same place usually does not. If you are unsure, check with the building department in Burlington before work begins.
